UGREEN USB 2.0 A to Micro USB Cable, Aluminium Braided, 0.5 m, Black (60145)

Overview

The UGREEN 60145 (US290 series) is a 0.5 m USB 2.0 cable with a USB-A plug at one end and a Micro USB plug at the other, in a nylon braid with aluminium plug housings. It charges and syncs older phones, Bluetooth speakers, headphones, card readers, GPS units, small routers and some security accessories that still use Micro USB. The short length suits a power bank in the same bag or a desk next to a charger.

Is it right for you?

• Suits devices with a Micro USB port. Micro USB, Mini USB and USB-C plugs look similar but are not interchangeable, so check the port on your device first.
• At 0.5 m the device must sit close to the charger; choose a longer cable if you want to use the device while it charges.
• Charging speed depends on the charger and the device, not the cable alone.

Key features

• USB-A male to Micro USB male connectors.
• USB 2.0 data transfer up to 480 Mbps when both ends support data.
• Nylon braided outer covering for flexibility and everyday handling.
• Aluminium connector housings that give a firm grip when plugging in.
• 0.5 m length to keep connections tidy; black cable with grey connector housings.

What else you need

A USB-A charger, power bank or computer port, and a device with a Micro USB port.

Before you buy

• Check that the device port is Micro USB, not Mini USB or USB-C.
• Grip the housing rather than the cable when unplugging.
